Three newly built equestrian buildings have benefited from having
Cembrit’s bitumen roofing shingles installed to create an attractive
and long lasting finish. Cembrit supplied the shingles to the Stable
Company, a York-based company who designs, manufactures and installs
high quality, timber frame buildings.
One of the company’s specialist areas is equestrian buildings, a
community they have been serving for over three decades. The three
buildings, located in Milton Keynes, Chalfont St Giles and Ripon are
all bespoke designs from the company’s ‘tailor-made’ range and have
been designed to meet the specific needs of each client. The high
quality finish of each project demonstrates the company’s attention
to detail and build quality. The Cembrit bitumen shingles were
supplied in Two Tone Brown (Chalfont St Giles), Forest Green
(Ripon), and Two Tone Black (Milton Keynes). Recommended by the
Stable Company’s roofing supplier David Tompkins, a total of 250 3m²
bundles of shingles were supplied for the projects.
“David recommended Cembrit as he has been using their shingles for a
number of years,” says Gareth Barber of the Stable Company. “We
fitted them ourselves and found they were great to work with and
really finish off the buildings in an effective way; they combine
attractiveness and functionality in a cost-effective package.”
Cembrit bitumen shingles are an easy to fit roof covering that is
lightweight and inexpensive. Cembrit shingles are ideal for stables,
chalets, sheds, outhouses and mobile homes - as well as conventional
dwellings. The shingles offer enhanced performance and are available
in bold shades to suit modern architectural styles, as well as in
more ‘natural’ hues to complement more traditional style buildings.
The five standard colours are green, black, brown, red and grey,
with other solid, natural or laminate effects available to special
order.
Cembrit offers a wide range of natural and man-made roofing slate,
shingles, cladding panels, and corrugated sheet. Quality levels at
group factories are rigorously maintained to high standards with
many products manufactured under the control of ISO 9001 and British
Board of Agrément. Cembrit UK is a member of Cembrit Holding A/S
(formerly the Dansk Eternit Holding A/S) of Denmark, one of Europe’s
major building material producers of fibre reinforced cement
products for the roofing and cladding industry. The ultimate parent
company FL Smith recently celebrated its 125 year anniversary.
